As Sitecore continues to lead businesses in success through their advanced content management systems, we must learn how to grow and adapt to each new and improved CMS. This past June Sitecore released their latest CMS, the Sitecore Experience Platform 9.0 Update 2. This platform was created in response to the bugs and issues with Sitecore 9.0 Update 1. In update 2, the product was enhanced to better suite business needs, specifically of those on IT and digital marketing teams. Check out the list below to learn more about some of the new features and improvements of Sitecore 9.0 Update-2:

An improved Email Experience Manager (EXM)

With the release of Sitecore 9.0 Update 1, businesses no longer need to install a separate product for EXM. Instead, Sitecore included EXM in their product installation. To continue in aiding the improvement of businesses, Sitecore enhanced their EXM in Version 9.0 Update 2. Now, EXM supports Mongo and provides a migration guide to show users how to easily move all of their content to the new Sitecore 9.0.

New Sitecore Forms Module

In the newest update of Sitecore 9.0, WffM is replaced with a new Sitecore Forms module. In this new module, Sitecore Forms does not cause the Internet Explorer to crash on the user nor cause the user to waste time selecting each client language when looking for a specific form application. All of these issues with the Sitecore Forms module were resolved in update 2 of Sitecore 9.0.

Enhanced Marketing Automation & Foundation

Sitecore 9.0 Update 2 also offers businesses with numerous improvements in their marketing automation and foundation. Such improvements include easily adding contacts to your marketing automation campaign as well as more efficient methods to handle failed contact merges. The enhanced marketing foundation features on Sitecore 9.0 Update 2 can even copy interactions to the target contact of a contact merge.

Sitecore version 9.0 update 2 is a CMS that will benefit all aspects of a business from the IT to digital marketing teams. Thanks to Sitecore’s comprehensive testing and review of customer feedback, they were able to release this innovative and reliable product. We’d like to wish a huge congratulation to our friends at Sitecore on their product’s release as well as encourage you to try out their new and improved product!
